Butler's Sequete can hit 100 wins with appearance in WPIAL finals

FOX CHAPEL — The stars are aligned for Christian Sequete.

Get to the WPIAL championship round, get to 100 career wins. Butler's senior 182-pound wrestler wants them both — badly.

“I want to join that 100-win list,” Sequete said after winning the Section 3-AAA title Saturday. “We haven't had too many.”

The Golden Tornado have had eight 100-win wrestlers in the program's history. They've had seven wrestlers advance to the PIAA Tournament. They've had one WPIAL champion.

Sequete has an opportunity to add his name to all of those rather exclusive clubs.

“I can see him getting to the (WPIAL) finals down there,” Butler coach Scott Stoner said. “Christian has all of the tools. He's very capable."
